Chapter 290: Chapter 165: Tearing Through the Void, A Bountiful Harvest

The Grand Elder looked up to the sky.

Those incredibly formidable Celestial Swords seemed to become sparse and ordinary, not because they were insignificant, but because he now held a confidence in his heart that allowed him to regard them as nothing.

Xiang Tianxing struggled, controlling the Blood Demon’s remnants to leap toward the heavens.

All the remaining blood mist power erupted at this moment, with the Blood Demon howling continuously, finally transforming into a blood-red arc. ”Boom!”

After the earth-shattering sound, the blood-red arc consumed nearly half of the Celestial Swords, causing waves to spread out, further destroying the already ruined Demon Sect’s underground palace, making it look even more desolate.

But the remaining Celestial Swords would not show mercy, still suppressing with astonishing momentum.

Ning Qi’s eyes restrained the golden light, observing the Blood Pearl in the Grand Elder’s hand. He pressed on step by step, forcing the Grand Elder to act. At this moment, it was just right, but caution was needed, and he also needed to further explore the mystery of the Blood Pearl’s power. Although he had already observed for a long time, it was not enough.

Those remaining Celestial Swords were merely a test.

Xiang Tianxing was almost suffocating and could only pin all his hopes on the Grand Elder.

The Grand Elder’s robe fluttered and his silver hair danced.

He floated in the air, holding the Blood Pearl as if in devotion.

He suddenly shouted, and the Blood Pearl radiated light, sweeping out a transcendent power, transforming into a rainbow beam, slashing toward numerous Celestial Swords.

Ning Qi’s eyes shone with golden light, utilizing the Golden Pupil of Illusion-breaking fully, observing this wondrous power. ”Never have I seen such a marvelous power, its essence seems no different from the Power of Heaven and Earth, but the might it displays is worlds apart, almost like cotton and steel if one were to compare! Not only that, but it also possesses various mysteries, seemingly able to turn decay into miracles!” ”Is this... Martial Saint Power?!”

His heart trembled.

Amidst the sweeping blood-red beam, it was as if he heard voices of fear and wailing floating within, with someone unwilling, reaching out to struggle, but pulled into the depths of the Blood River. He seemed to see a blood-red lotus rising, and a mad demon laughing, all sorts of visions flashing past.

The Celestial Sword wailed, encountering such a tough opponent for the first time.

The Celestial Sword, which had been invincible, was easily cut down by the blood-red beam. Previously, the Blood Demon was ruthlessly suppressed by the Celestial Sword, but now the roles were reversed, and the Celestial Swords shattered, not from exhaustion of power, but from being forcibly broken, a significant difference.

Xiang Tianxing’s eyes filled with ecstasy.

The Grand Elder stroked his beard with a smile, all within his expectations.

The blood-red beam returned, fragmenting many Celestial Swords, only dimming a little. The Grand Elder’s stature rose step by step, holding the Blood Pearl for the first time at level with Ning Qi, he calmly said: ”True Man Tianjian, you are indeed stunning, a rarity in millennia, surpassing the Celestial Human Realm, approaching the Martial Saint Realm, but... you ultimately do not understand the true power of Martial Saints! In the face of such great power, no matter how demonic you are, you must submit!”

He urged the Blood Pearl, and the energy of the blood-red beam was replenished, bursting forth again with brilliance.

Ning Qi marveled: ”Indeed, an unbelievable power! The Martial Saint Realm, truly the realm that countless Martial Artists yearn for!”

He did not hesitate to praise, even though before him it was merely utilizing Martial Saint Secret Treasure to catalyze Martial Saint Power, it was extraordinary, far beyond what the Celestial Human Realm could compare to, fueling his fervor for the Martial Saint Realm, thinking that perhaps mastering such a mysterious power might truly be the start of eternal life.

The Grand Elder stared down Ning Qi: ”You massacred numerous strong figures of my Holy Sect, your soul should be extinguished, but considering the difficulty of your cultivation, I offer you a chance, open your mind, let me imprint a mark, serve me, and you might live.”

This was to recover losses.

In this battle the Demon Sect lost more than forty Celestial Human Realm experts, greatly reducing its foundation.

But if he could enslave such a peerless demon, he could recover more than half, perhaps even profit, the deterrent power of a True Man Tianjian was enough to dominate Great Yan unless Great Yan also used an equivalent of the Blood Pearl foundation.

Ning Qi naturally would not agree, and after a brief moment of respite, more Celestial Swords floated beside him, he merely sighed to himself: ”It’s a pity, you are not a Martial Saint.”

This time, he had roughly guessed the true power of a Martial Saint.

The Grand Elder snorted coldly: ”Won’t shed a tear until you see the coffin, so be it, let you witness once again the mighty power of Martial Saint!”

With such power in hand, he was assured, even somewhat inflated, not caring at all about Ning Qi recovering his strength, intending to break all the pride of the True Man Tianjian before him with absolute dominance, thus making him willingly serve as a slave!

The Celestial Sword howled and transformed into a Sword River across the sky.

The Grand Elder merely waved his hand, and the blood-red beam like a Heavenly Blade, slashed down with overwhelming might.

Not surprisingly.

The Celestial Swords all shattered.

Even Ning Qi’s face turned a bit pale, the continuous battle had drained him considerably, although his foundation was beyond ordinary, the consumption was not small, yet everything remained under control.

With successive attacks, he roughly discerned the Blood Pearl Secret Treasure’s reality.

Whether it was due to the limitation of the secret treasure itself or the Grand Elder’s ability to manipulate it, the upper limit of the blood-red beam was locked, though the power to turn decay into miracles was mysterious, it ultimately bore some rigidity, under the Golden Pupil of Illusion-breaking, Ning Qi saw its flaws.

The Grand Elder, with momentum like heaven, roared: ”Quickly submit, spare you a life!”

The blood-red Heavenly Blade slashed again, replenished with Blood Pearl energy, blossoming into radiance once more. Ning Qi felt a twinge of regret, seeing the Grand Elder squander like this, as the Blood Pearl’s energy diminished with every bit used, being an extraordinary power that was finite.
